A4 Dementia Activity Workbook – on the Buses Edition
$28.70
A spiral-bound A4 dementia activity workbook for seniors and adults living with dementia, covering six activity types across 75 photocopiable pages. Suited to one-to-one sessions and small groups with varying ability levels.
This A4 dementia activity workbook for seniors and adults living with dementia brings together six types of cognitive and creative activities in a single spiral-bound book. Built around an On the Buses theme, it suits individuals with varying abilities and works equally well for one-to-one sessions or small groups where participants are working on different tasks at the same time.
How it can be used
Activity coordinators can photocopy pages as needed, allowing the book to be used repeatedly across multiple residents or sessions. Because the activities range in difficulty and type, staff can select pages to match individual ability levels without needing separate resources. It works as a flexible session starter or a quiet independent activity between scheduled sessions.
Activity types included in this workbook:
- Adult colouring projects
- Reminiscence crossword puzzles
- Word searches
- Dot-to-dot puzzles
- Simple arithmetic problems
- Spelling and fill-in-the-blank exercises
- One-to-one quiet time: Select a colouring or dot-to-dot page matched to the individual’s current ability and sit alongside them while they work through it independently.
- Small group sessions: Distribute different page types to group members so each person works on an activity suited to their ability — word searches for some, colouring for others — without anyone feeling singled out.
- Reminiscence conversation starter: Use the On the Buses crossword puzzles as a prompt for conversation, asking residents to share memories connected to the clues or answers.
- Morning cognitive warm-up: Photocopy a simple arithmetic or spelling page and use it as a short warm-up at the start of a structured activity session.
- In-room independent activity: Leave a photocopied page with a resident for quiet engagement between scheduled sessions.
